Reported issues for mirror-mcp

Pod holds 16 of 17 problems reported by people outside the maintainer team. Issues filed by the project's own owners, members and collaborators are excluded entirely — a maintainer's release checklist is not a warning to a prospective user.

Back to mirror-mcp.

Most discussed

Refactor: consolidate versioning, validate inputs, and separate server from CLI (follow-up)

Summary

Follow up on the earlier refactor (Issue #21) to further improve maintainability and consistency. Focus areas: unify runtime versioning, add request validation, separate server construction from CLI, and centralize defaults/constants. This should reduce technical debt and make testing and future enhancements safer.

Goals

• Single source of truth for server/version metadata
• Stronger type safety at the request boundary
• Clear separation of concerns (server factory vs. CLI entry)

Refactor: tighten types, align versioning, and separate server from CLI

Summary

Improve code quality and maintainability by tightening type safety, aligning version metadata, and separating server construction from the CLI entry point. This reduces risk, clarifies module boundaries, and makes testing easier.

Goals

• Stronger type guarantees at the MCP boundary
• Single source of truth for versioning and constants
• Cleaner separation of concerns (server vs. CLI wrapper)
• More predictable error handling and outputs
• Better test coverage for core flows and fa

Implement Reflection Analytics Dashboard

Description

Create a web-based dashboard that provides analytics on reflection usage, quality metrics, common topics, and patterns over time. This would help users understand how reflections are being used and their overall impact.

Technical Implementation

1. Create a new analytics folder with dashboard implementation
2. Implement data collection in the core reflection engine
3. Build simple visualization components for key metrics
4. Create a lightweight web server for the dashboard in

Add Support for Collaborative Multi-Agent Reflection

Description

Extend mirror-mcp to support collaborative reflection between multiple LLM agents with different roles, creating a "reflection panel" that produces a synthesis of multiple perspectives.

Technical Implementation

1. Create a new collaborative-reflection.ts module
2. Implement a multi-agent orchestration system
3. Define standard agent roles (critic, advocate, synthesizer, etc.)
4. Update cli.ts to add a new collaborative tool endpoint
5. Implement response synthesis logic

Implement Reflection Quality Metrics

Description

Create a comprehensive set of quality metrics that evaluate the reflection's depth, coherence, insightfulness, and practical value. These metrics would be included in the reflection response to help users assess reflection quality.

Technical Implementation

1. Create a new quality-metrics.ts module
2. Implement various quality assessment algorithms
3. Update the reflection response in cli.ts to include quality metrics
4. Add a qualityThreshold parameter for minimum accept

Add Visualization Data Generation for Reflections

Description

Enhance the reflection output to include structured data that can be used by clients to generate visualizations (mind maps, concept graphs, decision trees) representing the reflection's structure and key insights.

Technical Implementation

1. Create a new visualization-data.ts module
2. Implement structured data generators for different visualization types
3. Update the reflection response format in cli.ts to include visualization data
4. Add a visualizationType parameter

Implement Progressive Reflection Depth Control

Description

Add support for multi-level reflection depth that allows the LLM to recursively reflect on its reflections at configurable depths. This creates a "thinking about thinking about thinking" capability that can uncover deeper insights.

Technical Implementation

1. Modify reflection-engine.ts to support recursive reflection calls
2. Add a depth parameter to control the number of recursive levels
3. Implement loop detection to prevent infinite recursion
4. Create structured outpu

Support for External Knowledge Integration

Description

Enhance reflection quality by allowing the LLM to integrate external knowledge sources when reflecting. This would enable the reflection to be grounded in relevant facts, references, or frameworks beyond what's in the LLM's training data.

Technical Implementation

1. Create a new knowledge-integration.ts module
2. Implement interfaces for common knowledge sources (web search, vector DB, etc.)
3. Update reflection-engine.ts to conditionally use external knowledge
4. Add a `k

Add Real-Time Confidence Scoring

Description

Enhance the reflection mechanism to include quantitative confidence scoring for different aspects of the LLM's reasoning, allowing for more precise self-assessment of certainty levels.

Technical Implementation

1. Update reflection-engine.ts to include confidence scoring prompts
2. Implement confidence extraction logic in a new confidence-analyzer.ts module
3. Add visualization data formats for confidence scores
4. Modify the response format to include structured confidence

Implement Structured Reflection Templates

Description

Add support for predefined reflection templates that guide the LLM through specific types of structured self-analysis (e.g., SWOT analysis, dialectical reasoning, Socratic questioning, etc.).

Technical Implementation

1. Create a reflection-templates.ts module with predefined templates
2. Add a template parameter to the reflect tool in cli.ts
3. Update reflection-engine.ts to integrate templates into the reflection generation process
4. Include parameters for template c

Add Reflection Memory and Temporal Analysis

Description

Create a reflection history storage system that allows the LLM to compare its current reasoning with past reflections on similar topics, enabling it to track evolution in its thinking and identify patterns in its reasoning process.

Technical Implementation

1. Create a new reflection-memory.ts module to handle storing and retrieving past reflections
2. Implement an optional in-memory or SQLite storage backend for persistence
3. Add fingerprinting for reflections to identify t

Implement Multi-Perspective Reflection with Persona Switching

Description

Currently, mirror-mcp supports a single reflection per query. Enhance the reflection engine to support multi-perspective analysis that allows the LLM to "switch personas" and evaluate the same question from multiple angles (e.g., optimistic view, critical view, domain expert view).

Technical Implementation

1. Modify reflection-engine.ts to add a new reflectMultiple method that accepts an array of system personas
2. Update the tool schema in cli.ts to include a new `perso

Update README install instructions

Now that we have the badges to install in VS Code, remove the VS Code Setup sections from the readme. Just use the badges. Add a new section for installing in generic MCP hosts using the configuration urlencoded in the vs code buttons.

Add system and user prompt arguments

The reflect tool should take system and user prompts. This will help the LLM self-direct what kind of response it gets. Be sure to update the README.
